Chapter #8 ~ The Abscond (Part #2)
Gumball and Patrick ran across the driveway as best they could, rushing towards the fairy on the ground. They all looked down at the elf and saw cuts, dirt and bleeding spots on her natural yellow and orange body. Some of her limbs were shaking, her mouth was bleeding, and her eyes were closed, with only her left eye was injured. Gumball's jaw drooped, his pupils constricted, and there was a dull pain deep in his stomach. He looked away from the fairy as his eyes began to water. Seeing what happened to his daughter, Patrick's jaw dropped to the floor, and his eye sockets moved to her. The shock and grief weighing on his chest took his breath away. Patrick looked up, seeing the cat's eyes filled with tears.
After squinting his eyes and sighing heavily, he reached for his tool bag, took out the bandages, wrapped them up on some scars, and gave the rest to Gumball. Suddenly, multitudes of sounds sprouted nearby the two, and the duo turned their heads, witnessing the infested army rushing toward them. And those who had previously fallen from the prior aerial right slowly arose from the ground behind them. After ascending albeit slowly, the leaking blood from their limbs rejuvenated, with each blemish from the skin instantly recovered, leaving their limbs healed anew. Patrick gritted his teeth and clenched his fists into a tight ball as the group tried to give chase. He put the shotgun back on the stock, reached into his equipment pocket, and pulled out a few parts.
Gumball raised an eyebrow as the cat wiped the tears from his face and finished patching up Penny. He witnessed the paternal nut putting the pieces together. The cat bowed its head to the peanuts and placed the last item on the makeshift stick. At the right end was a sharp knife, and at the left was a square with pointed ends. He also pulled out a sharp knife. The dagger was a long silver blade with a black base encircled by his hand.
When he saw his family, classmates, and neighbors coming to reach him as the tornado disappeared, Gumball's eyebrow dropped to the floor. He held the switch on his baton as electric bits came out of the base. Though, it suddenly shut off in a second and then rejuvenates power. The feline looked downward and tilted his head, tapping the baton repeatedly. His eyes glazed at the floor as the reoccurrence of the thunderstorm reached his mind. He couldn't fathom that the aerial combat left the gadget inconsistent with its activation systems. A faint exhale erupted from the floor, and Gumball's eyes expanded as his heart raced. He twisted his head and saw the fairy slowly rising from the ground. Her yellow-orange body coasted with scratches and bandages, and her limbs shook. Gumball rushed to the fairy's damaged state and advanced his arm to her back.
He carried her off the floor, and the fairy latched her arms around his shoulder. When Gumball lifted her chin and head upward, a faint yet damaged grin appeared on her face. The cat responded with another smile, and the fairy stood still on her feet as she looked downward. Her father turned his body to see her rise from the ground. As she brushed the filth off her body, Patrick scampered to the pair with the weapons in both hands.
"You managed to finish patching her up?" Patrick asked the feline after assembling the equipment while the fairy as she nearly stumbled on her footing.
"Yeah. So far, a million bucks." Gumball answered as his ears flopped to the floor as the cat let go of his hand from her back.
"How are you feeling, sweetheart?" The fatherly peanut asked as he placed his hand on her right shoulder once the fairy lifted her head upward at the two.
"I'm okay, Dad. I appreciated the medical care, but I suggest looking behind you!" Penny screamed as she pointed her finger at what was coming to Patrick behind his back and turned around swiftly.
A massive thunder strike boomed across the sky as Masami soaring in the air, with electric bolts, a darkened atmosphere, and intense wind casting all over the street before her.
"Watashitachi zen'in ga kizuna o musubu made, anata wa dokoni mo ikanai!" (You're not going anywhere until we all bond!) The infested cloud roared as she thrust herself after the trio in incredible speeds.
Once the trio eluded, Penny soon blasted more fireballs at the cloud, only for the latter to sidestep each one. She fired many discharges at the trio, and Penny grasped the two and rushed over the roof of a house. The electricity scattered all over the advance below, only to disappear in seconds. The cloud hastened toward the three, gritting her teeth as the prism virus spewed, and thrust her hands onwards. A massive burst of lightning shot out of her hands, and Penelope burst a flamethrower from her mouth. The two opposite blasts locked instantly in a beam lock as both enchanters struggled to overpower one another.
Gumball squinted his eyes as he stood as the situation grew further. As he twisted his head to the left, he raised an eyebrow as the flame suddenly trimmed, nevertheless not too much. He scratched his chin and raised his eyebrows upward as he witnessed Masami's lightning aura gone massive due to the power usage. Soon, he fired a discharge at the infected cloud, and the blast encircled her body. An intense scream burst out of her mouth, and she stopped unleashing her storm blast. Penny then shoots another blaze onto the sentient fog and employs her wingspan to shove her out of the sky. The trio watched as she plunged inside a house and bounced off the roof afterward.
When Patrick saw other classmates trying to break in, he attacked them and used his tools to push the students out of the way, giving himself leverage to protect his beloved daughter. He wielded the multi-axe as if he were hitting a home run, smashing the head of any victim who charged at him. Leslie, Idaho, Clayton, Alan, Juke, and Anton recovered and began taking turns damaging the trio with different abilities, making it difficult for the three to dodge their attacks to avoid infection. Juke uses sound waves to blow them off the ground, and Alan inhales enough helium to blow the three of them off. Penny grabbed the two from the wind and flapped her wings before landing on the ground. Gumball jumps and fires an electric shock at the radio, leaving him paralyzed until Penny transforms and throws fire in the student's face. The sentient radio stumbled on the floor, and its DJ station crackled.
Leslie resumes using his leave-like outgrowths again, but this time with the vines expanded and enveloped with the prism slime slitter off his tentacles. He lunged his arms forward at the three with his more augmented tendrils. Each evaded, but some tendrils latched themselves onto Gumball's right arm. The feline ran backward, but the tentacles presently pulled toward Leslie. A distasteful smile emerged from the flower's face as the fungus attached to the limbs advanced, causing the feline to shove his feet on the ground, slowing down the pulling as he dragged and sprouted his claws to tear off his other long sleeve.
Patrick rushed in and grasped the unaffected areas, using his knife to slash the tendrils off. Penny swiftly burned his tentacles, halting the infection process, and several of the tentacles attached to the cat's arm fell off as the father peanut cut them off. Leslie pulled back and grasped his together, shoving them to the floor. Everything shook, and a shockwave sprouted from his ground pound. The three fell, and the slime attached to the limbs soon splashed across the foundation.
The sentient flower then charged at the three at incredible speeds, with the slime running down through his arms. Penny dashed towards him and morphed into a minotaur-like creature, shoving her hands in the street. Claws sprinted from her firsts as she took our massive rocks and jagged them inside as if they were brass knuckles. Penelope then shoved her fists against her cousin, halting his process of dashing. An uppercut, hook, and multitudes of jabs cast upon the flower, and a simple punch raised in the air left the flower flying backward. Mixed blends of blood and the virus spewed from Leslie's mouth as he fell to the floor on his back.
Once the flower fell, Clayton emerged from behind him and morphed his body. Anton & Idaho assist Clayton as a train materializes from his body, getting inside the created locomotive as train engineer and conductor, rushing after the trio. The three widened their eyes, and jaws dropped as the play-doh advanced closer.
"Hey, guys! You got a train to catch!" Idaho chuckled as Clayton's face emerged from the headlamp. The wheels within the training truck, drive rod, eccentric crack, and driver instantly spin at tremendous speeds, to the point steam and flame sprinted out from the ground. Marks arose from the ground, with train wheels leaving behind massive train tracks on the road. Inside the cab, the infested toast and potato grasped a few pieces from the immersive clay locomotive and formed the clay into a massive tube. Clayton shifted his googly eyes to his right and raised an eyebrow. He created a window attached to the headlamp, and the clay looked. Clayton saw Anton and Idaho constructing something attached to the structs, and his eyebrows rose. An image arose from his mind, and Clayton's eyes squinted as he instantly shifted the tube. Soon, the pipe morphed into a chair, missiles, and a miniature version of a railway gun. Anton jumped inside the seat and adjusted the projectiles into the weapons.
Gumball, Penny, and Patrick dodged the upcoming train's missile attacks, leaving holes in the ground. In seconds, the feline lifted his arm upward, switched to another button, and blasted foam against the play-doh, toast, and potato. The play-doh sprouted a shield from his train form, blocking the foam attack. The dragon continued casting flame onto the clay as he barricaded from the blaze, while the toast and potato almost got roasted in the aftermath. The three rushed out of the train's way, and it turned back as it charged them. The locomotive form drove over many automobiles and houses, leaving the street in shambles. Patrick widened his eyes as he saw the carnage the play-doh bestowed as he witnessed the nearby homes and vehicles crumble into pieces.
"Careful! You risk endangering people's insurance and property with your steering!" Patrick screamed at the three students and pulled out his shotgun.
"Do we look like we care about property damage?" The clay responded as he rushed toward the trio instantly.
"And if you asked us, we're having a blast!" Anton yelled as he unleashed another blast at the trio.
"Watch out!" Gumball screamed as the locomotive dashed across the street with discharges, almost thrashing into the feline and peanut.
Penny switched to a phoenix-like transformation and grasped dirt within her claws. She threw the soil onto the train, which got into the clay's eyes and mouth. It blinds the clay and causes him to steer uncontrollably. Both Anton and Idaho gasped as the potato advanced to the strut's steering wheel within Clayton. Anton tried to fire the shape-shifter, but Gumball rushed into the scene and blasted the toast and potato, and the electricity left the two in a frozen state as their limbs shook. Some missiles flew elsewhere, crashing into more nearby houses. Then, Patrick released his shotgun and fired at the wheels, causing Clayton to burst sparks from his underbelly. Soon, he fell on his left side, stumbling the clay across the avenue as he shrank.
Seconds passed, and more infested beings jumped over the three lying on the floor. As they emerged, Gumball, Penny, and Patrick piled together as they positioned themselves for battle. The savages pounced over the three with infectious hands bestowed, in a similar state to a tiger jumping toward its prey. The feline fired electrical discharges at his classmates and swung the baton, leaving almost all the classmates in a rigid yet trembling state. Penny stepped forward and slammed her arms and fists to the ground, causing another shockwave and sending the classmates flying backward. As they fell, the parents stepped in and lunged their slimy claws at the trio. They each dodged and swung their weapons at the victims. Patrick repeatedly utilized his multi-axe at the vulnerable spots on the infected and sometimes unleashed his knife at their legs and thighs.
He then blocked some of the attacks of each family dashing towards the trio. Gumball continued to fire discharges at each neighbor coming, splashing foam into their eyes, and blinding their eyesight as the cat shoved the wand into their stomachs. He took a few seconds to observe the radar on his vacuum, witnessing the green bars almost gone alongside the yellow bars close to fruition before resuming. Penny kept casting fireballs and used her shape-shifting limbs, keeping the victims from getting too close to the trio out of caution of the virus attached to them. Blows, jabs, and wing flapping cast over the infected townspeople damaging them left and right. During the battle, the street continued to get nearly obliterated from the aftermath of the fighting, and some residents took a few glimpses of the action in the backdrop before driving away.
Before the Watterson Family advanced further to join the fight, Nicole halted as she squinted her eyes at the situation. She saw Gumball, Penelope, and Patrick attacking the infected one by one. Thus, she tilted her head to the left, witnessing a couple of bodies running away from the situation.
"You three go on ahead. I'm taking my considerations elsewhere." Nicole said to her family as she pounced on the floor and lunged to the nearby sideway, scurrying across the ground before stopping.
"Honey, where are you going? Isn't the event over there?" Richard asked as he scratched his head.
"Well, Richard. You noticed that something's missing?" The motherly feline asked once she stood like a sitting cat and pointed her finger at their son and neighbors. The three leaned their heads forward, with Anais positioning her hands on her eyes in a similar stance to using goggles and the doll doing the same. The gluttonous bunny placed his fingers on his forehead and raised an eyebrow. Nicole places her hands on his hips once her family examines the situation. When the bunnies and doll looked at the wielders from the occurrence, the fatherly rabbit twisted his head back to Nicole as he shrugged his shoulders and hands out. After him, Anais and Daisy revolve their heads to the motherly feline, with sickening grins emerging from their faces.
"So far, only I can see Gumball, Penny, and Patrick," Richard responded to his wife as he placed his hands down.
"Yes, and why?" The motherly feline asked after squinting her eyes.
"Well, Patrick's usually with Judith and Polly, thus their pet, and... Ohhhhh..." The gluttonous bunny expressed once his eyebrows shot up, placing both hands on his head and ears rising in the air.
"I see. You're purposing a sneak attack, seizing the opportunity to catch the rest considering the trinity's occupied with the inhabitants." Anais responded and scratched her chin as she walked towards her.
"Indeed, Anais. I figured Patrick would've spared time to allow Judith to escape. I might even receive more playmates in the meantime. I'll be right back!" Nicole continued as she resumed on the foundation and rushed over to the shadows of the nearby bushes. She placed her hands and feet on the floor, prolonged her arms and legs, lifted her head upward, and thrust her body forward, racing like a feral cheetah across the sidewalk.
As the battle persisted, the chief mercenary and his associates interfered and fired their discharges at the trio. The three evaded from the blasts, and the shots landed the ground. As the cat, fairy, and peanut landed nearby the sidewalk, the mercenaries taken out their firearms. Penny fluttered her wings again, and the hirelings flung across the air. They each fallen onto their rears inside grasslands. The hired guns lifted themselves from the gardens and sprinted after the triad. Pellets fired, and the three hustled across the avenue, leaving behind shot holes from nearby fences.
Another discharge strikes at the triad, and one of the blasts anchored Penny's right leg. A blood-curdling scream erupted from her as the electricity encircled the dragon intensively. Her limbs and wings shook, stammering her body as if ice coated her entire body. Soon, she fell to the ground, leaving dust coating her anatomy. One of her wings and tail slammed the nearby fence to the ground, scattering across the grass. A massive hiss emerged from Gumball's mouth as he gritted his teeth and shoved the baton at the trio, unleashing another blast onto the attackers. The combustion shattered over the ground, casting towards the three canines instantly. The three jumped over the blasting and landed on their feet on the street. Unpalatable smiles emerged from the mercenaries' snouts, and their eyes jagged at the two.
At that moment, the triad rushed over to the feline and peanut. Once Patrick and Gumball clenched their hands into tight balls and gritted their teeth, the chief thrust toward the duo. The peanut placed his weapon on his back and rushed after him, shoving his fists at the mercenary though cautious of the fungus attached to him as he unleashed a few punches. As the peanut landed a few blows, the chief blocked the last attack, committing a jab and right cross on Patrick's face before the latter got a chance to punch. Blood spilled from the fatherly peanut's mouth as he grunted, and punch marks arose from his shell. Soon, the canine instantly swung his right leg and shoved his foot into his torso against him, leaving Patrick falling on his back.
A small humph emerged from the chief's maw, and he raised his head upward as he noticed Gumball witnessing Patrick encountering immense damage.
Then, Gumball intervened as his heart raced, lunging his rod at the dog, firing a discharge. The chief mercenary dodged the attack, thrusting himself to his left, pounced on the ground, and jumped toward the cat, swinging his left foot. The captain kicked the cat in the face, sentencing Gumball on the the floor again. Suddenly, the feline used his claws to lessened the dragging while a reddish bruise appeared on his face. He lifted his head up, huffed instantly, and jolted himself forward.
He sprinted at the chief and pivoted his baton, only for the latter to block the attack with his own. The two engaged further by thrashing each other with their batons as energy burst out of the wands repeatedly, equivalent to sword fighting. Hearts raced, sweat dropping, hands shaking, and sparks scattered from the rods. The fighters blundered, pushing each other, and Gumball immediately noticed another coming behind him, blasting a discharge at the feline.
His eyebrows rose to the sky, and he swiftly jumped out of the way of the blast. The chief mercenary evaded from the combustion, shoving himself forward, gotten the cat inside a blade lock again and swung his rod to his left. The canine thrust his fist at Gumball's face, swinging his arms repeated until he twisted his body and shoved his foot at the cat's stomach. The feline bit his lip as he fallen to the floor, placing his hand on his stomach and coughing. A red liquid burst our from his maw, leaking afterward.
In seconds, the cronies intervened the feline and blasted discharges at the cat. Gumball dodged the blasts and swung his baton at one of the mercenaries, shooting him instantly.
The hitman froze, and the cat shoved his foot in the uninfected armor on his abdomen, shoving him to the ground. The second rushed in, jabbing his fist into his stomach and clasped his fists together, plowing them onto his head. Then, he lifted his left leg as his torso descended and fists clenched. Soon, the mercenary grasped his shoulders, and dragged him across the ground. Soil, crumbs, and nearby grass scattered all over Gumball's face, and the feline was then thrown across the street, landing nearby a ruined house. The filth was casted all over his clothes, blood slowly spewing out of his mug, and pain casted within his body. The feline shoved his hands on the ground, grunting as he slowly rose from the floor though his arms shaken.
"This is payback for what you did to us earlier!" The armored canine roared as he watched the feline stumbled across the house's frontier. Nearby the two was the previous mercenary, rising from the ground, shaking off his body as the electric aura slowly disappeared and vacuum stopped flickering.
Soon, the three walked forward, unleashing their batons again and discharged onto Gumball, suffering the same fate as the stricken dragon, and lay on his knees before he recovered. A massive cry erupted from his mug, and the electrical discharge cast all over his body, reaching for his vacuum.
The galvanic shocks went inside the gadget, and the innerworkings malfunctioned again. The lights from within raced frantically, identical to a traffic light going haywire. Seconds passed, and Gumball fell to the ground, loosened his hand and dropped his baton. Unbeknownst to the screaming sky blue cat, Penny's eyes daggered at him, and her pupils shrunken while she struggled to thrust her limbs forward.
Meanwhile, Patrick grunted as he lifted himself from the ground, swinging his body to the left as he stood. The fatherly peanut's eyes widened, witnessing the feline facing galvanic blasts toward him and his daughter still frozen on the ground. He twisted his head to the trio, with his eyebrows downward, clenching his hands into tight balls again and gritting his teeth. He dashed toward the trio as sweat dropped from his head, huffing and puffing. Suddenly, an image emerged within his mind, and the latter saw himself getting electrocuted. Also, another emerged from within, witnessing Penny falling on the floor earlier and broken fence pieces scattered. He rubbed his chin once advancing and pointed his finger in the air. The trio turned their heads to see Patrick running towards them, and each reached for their belts. Before they unleashed their handguns, the peanut grasped the three remaining pieces from the ground and thrown them at the three as if they were throwing stars.
The sharp end of the projectiles were plunged into the crew's hands, causing the bones to crack instantly and blood leaking out, causing the three to feel significant pain on their hands. They shrunken their pupils and gritting their teeth, growling loudly together as they loosened their grips on the batons. The electricity from the wands diminished, and the galvanic aura enwrapping Gumball vanished. His body's still fibbed on the floor, frozen in place as some of his limbs staggering and smoke coming out of the vacuum. A immersive amount of grunts emerged from his mouth as the feline thrust his limbs forward, placing his hands on the ground. He slowly reached for the button attached to the vacuum, shoving his finger on the switch, shutting off the gadget.
Patrick swiftly charged in at the crew, reached for his kit, and unleashed a pepper spray. The gadget bore a jet-black handle and bottle, with a cover attached to it and white initials saying, "Sent the sucker to the next golf course!" Soon, a white substance burst out of the gadget, and it attached itself to the canine's eyes, with its sizzling properties causing their eyes to moisture. The leader and his companions placed the baton back to their vacuums, and reached up their hands to their eyes to remove the sludge. At the moment, the peanut rushed over to the three and swung his weapon at them. Screams emerged, and the chief bodyguard and his teammates fell across the ground, feeling the damage attached to their skin. The aftermath left more cracks on their armor, with blemished spots shown across their fur.
As the trio slowly recuperated, Penny arose from the ground gradually. She lifted herself from the floor, twisting her skull at the triad who assailed Gumball nearby. She watched Patrick progressing to the cat before seeing the virus attached to his shirt. He took out his knife and plunged at the shirt, tearing off the sleeves before the slime even reached his fur. A fainted sigh emerged from her mouth, and the dragon glimpsed Ms. Simian's hired men remerging. As she snarled, Penelope swung her tail at their legs, plummeting them to the floor further away from the three before turning her head back at the feline, who's now sleeveless.
The chief mercenary lifted his head upward, raising a eyebrow once glimpsing her wings. An image emerged from his mind, glancing the dragon grasping the two runaways and flying away. Soon, the mental image disappeared, and he raised his pistol, with the red light materializing on the wings. The cronies accomplished the same, and they discharged on the wings. Blood spattered after shooting, and a massive scream erupted from her mouth. Gumball and Patrick turned around as they halted, seeing the dragon's wings falling to the ground, with the red substance spilling the floor. She stopped running and twisted his wings to her face. As the fairy witnessed, small, leaking holes emerged from her appendages. She gasped as she tried to fly, before more bullets casted onto her and fell on the floor. Both feline and peanut hyperventilated as their jaws dropped to the floor.
"Penny!" Gumball screamed as he scrambled after the dragon, only for a couple of bullets shot onto his right shoulder. His heart raced as he huffed and puffed, as blood spewed. Pupils shrunk further, and the world around him turned black. Gumball felled the floor and stood on his knees. His head plummeted to the ground, grunting positioned his hand on the wounds. A massive red tint emerged from Patrick's face as he gritted his teeth, placing his multi-axe on his back and unleashing his shotgun.
"Gumball!" Penny screamed before twisting her head to the trio again as a stream burst out of her maw. A massive roar exploded out of her mouth, and the trio reached back their batons. The dragon growled and blasted the three, casting an enormous blaze onto the triad, where it instantly enveloped the crew, burning up the exposed fur and skin.
Patrick loaded the firearm and fired at the chief bodyguard. The impact of the bullet plunged through his exposed opened crack on his chest armor, leaving behind a massive bullet shot hole near his shoulder. The canine screamed once he fell over rearward, with mixed blood and virus spewing from the wound. He fell to the floor on his left arm, dragging across the ground as his blood followed.
"Patch him up, honey!" The fatherly peanut screamed as Penny shape-shifted back to her fairy form and raced at the feline with a medical kit his her hands. Patrick pivoted to the nearly fried-armed trio as he resumed firing at the mercenary's affiliates. Shots attended from the shotgun, and two empty shells fell to the ground. Two bullet holes appeared onto their skins, with leaking blood pouring out. The cronies fell to the floor, lying next to their commander. After cocking his gun, he twisted his body and rushed to the fairy, witnessing her removing the bullets from within Gumball. The latter bears bandage tape on his injuries and a regular ban-aids on his face. After taking the pellets out, Penny proceeded the same with her wings.
Suddenly, the trio heard multitudes of nearby rubble lifting themselves in the air. They each twisted their heads, seeing the familiar snitch advancing towards them. Gumball instantly turns back on his gadget, blowing the smoke off it and pressing the button though it popped a few sparks out of itself. Patrick witnessed William levitating more objects, shoving them toward the trio. The three evaded the utilized debris, and the shape-shifter formed into a dragon and blasted at the snitch, only for the latter to dodge. The frying eyeball squinted and dashed toward the dragon. Her limbs were unable to move. And the dragon is raised in the sky above her.
'No way I'm falling for that again.' William spoke in his mind as he lifted Penny in the air and threw her across the street with his telekinesis. As they prepared for the upcoming fight, Patrick and Gumball watched as they glimpsed Penny getting slammed across the sky several times and thrown into the avenue behind them. They each gritted their teeth, dashing over to her presence. Unfortunately, a black aura cast with lighting coated the house nearby, and an explosion arose as it blew the home into pieces. The pieces scattered across the neighborhood, and a vicious cloud flew in the art, with massive thunder blots encircling her, a fierce snarl once she clenched her hands into fists, and an assemblage of lacerations onto her frame. Masami glided back to the lane instantly.
Suddenly, the video game spider sprite burst out of another place, shaking his body off the prior damage, aviating to the scene. Two projectiles from the cloud and sprite lunged at the feline and peanut, and both runners dodged from the blasts. Holes arose as they landed to the ground. After evading, the two continued to run off, but Masami and Ocho rushed into the scene in front of the two, and the rest of the students came up behind the runners' backs.
"Oh, crap!" Gumball shouted as his eyes widened and pupils shrunk as he released his nozzle, though shoving his fist at the vacuum seemed to stabilize from the flickering.
"Doko ni iku to omoimasu ka?!" (Where do you think you're going?!) Masami hollered with a sickening grin at the two as lighting bolts materialized from her hands.
"Can't let you leave until you finished the game!" Ocho shouted as he unleashed multitudes of pixels from his body and largen them.
In seconds as the classmates charged at them and the projectiles unleashed, Gumball twisted the knob on his nozzle and burst out a massive extinguisher cloud onto the infested schoolmates. The cloud nearly enveloped the crowd, and the cat grasped Patrick's arm and pulled him out the mist. The projectiles unleashed casted upon the classmates, blasting them one by one. The blasts blown the students away as the feline and peanut ran further away. Masami and Ocho widen their eyes, and jaws drop to the floor as they witness they targeted the wrong folks. Patrick looked at the frozen flyers and swung his weapon after the mist blinded their eyesight. The two swiftly fell to the lawns as dirt and manure scattered over the regions. Soon after recovery, they turned their heads around, seeing the two heading toward the fallen dragon.
"Masami, I think we should've produced better marksmanship and blast our targets coherently." Ocho responded to the cloud as the two dashed after them after dropping his eyebrows.
"Jōdan janai yo, supaidāsupuraito!" (No kidding, spider sprite!) The cloud lamented embarrassingly after looking at the damaged classmates, with black tint and red blush emerging from her face.
Alan ascended from the ruins looming over the street before him. He shook his body, still sensing the heat from the prior skirmish. As the balloon looked below, she saw Gumball and Patrick from a distance, surrounded by the infested classmates as the rest behind them tried to catch up. Soon, he noticed a familiar cloud on the ground, enveloping all his schoolmates in the aftermath, including Carmen getting blasted. Widened eyes arose from his face as he remembered the previous method earlier with Clayton. While watching, Alan gritted his teeth as the balloon shifted his eyebrows down. In seconds, he zipped into the street instantly, gliding to the situation as the wind surrounding him produced. As the cat and peanut escaped, the balloon flew over the cloud and blew it away. The street became cleared once the fog disappeared. Afterward, the balloon looked upward and saw Gumball and Patrick running away from the situation.
"As much as I want to see if you guys are okay, they're getting away!" The balloon shouted as he used his string to point at the escapees. As Alan flew away after grasping Carmen from the floor, the schoolmates recuperated from the ground, raising themselves as they wiped the dirt off their skins. Blemishes emerged on their skins as some grunted from the ammunition's aftermath. Soon, they jolted at the runaways with ease as several of the injuries healed instantly.
Afterward, the three turned their heads and oversaw the infected chased after the aggressors. Clayton growled maliciously and seized the toast and potato nearby, comprising her jet form again, heat bursting out of his thrusters and lifting himself in the air. The two passengers held on and saw the play-doh dashing toward the occurrence.
While running away from the scholars, their parents, mercenaries, and neighbors, Patrick witnessed that Nicole's nowhere to be spotted, which caused the father to become alarmed. He adequately acknowledged the other sex-hungry savages are far off in the city ruthlessly, tearing everybody apart autonomously. But this disclosure evokes an accelerative sense of horror inside. While the Wattersons are problematic on their own, Nicole is known for having more advantages on her sleeves. Thus, he obliquely sent his wife and younger child in grave jeopardy with her around after the traffic jam.
'Oh no! Nicole must've seen what I was doing and ran off to find Judith, Mr. Cuddles, and Polly! I have got to get these two out of here and reach them before she does!' Patrick thought as he shoved his weapon against Richard and Harold nearby, swinging against the two as they fell to the ground with marks on their heads.
Inside the background, the motherly feline watched the three members of the family headed outside of the area, hiding in the shadows after the previous attack. She left behind a decline of leftover townspeople, and she plans to implement a direct strike at the right moment, figuring Patrick would sacrifice himself to recover his daughter at one point.
Hm-hm-hm. Do they anticipate that miraculously escaping from us was straightforward? The other townspeople may have succeeded in relocating, but we won't leave anything else behind. Regardless of renouncing our passion, resistance is futile! Nicole thought, embracing the idea of pain on her victims.
In the foreground, Vladus flies through the sky, soaring over the streets at tremendous speeds, with Darwin riding his back, heading on to what remains in his shirt on this torso as the currents bypass his face. As they advanced in the air, the fish and elderly phantom looked down at the street below, witnessing the infected residents going after the three assailants. As this transpired, the rest of the population escaped and spotted several military vehicles arriving at the scene.
Mr. Lokowitchski fluttered his eyes as a vicious growl emerged from his mouth while Darwin discharged his baton in a similar stance of a house rider taking out his weapon. His eyes squinted as a devilish smile arose from his face, witnessing Gumball from below facing carnage upon the street. In seconds, the phantom aviated downward to the avenue below, and the goldfish held on to the spirit once more.
As seconds passed, the humvees avoided each passing vehicle before rushing toward the chaotic events occurring in the foreground. Equipping themselves with the delivered equipment from the automobiles, the cops and the soldiers rapidly prepared for direct action. As the vehicles arrived further at the sector, the armed officers merely witnessed that the last civilians inside their automobiles were already taken by the infested, increasing withdrawal from within them as they reckon to hurry up and recover them. Coffee has taken out their binoculars while sitting in the passenger seat, witnessing Gumball, Penny, and Patrick facing off the infected from the avenue before them. The aftermath left some citizens a chance to escape, though indirectly.
Before the beverage questions about endeavors, she spots only two prominent members of the Fitzgerald family trying to escape the situation in a nearby avenue, causing her to ponder if they decided to split up from the onslaught but rather focus on the mission first. Not far behind, some soldiers exited from the Sea Knights and arrived on the streets, following the humvees nearby. Soon, the hawk parked nearby the sidewalk and cut off the engine. In seconds, the cops and soldiers exited the vehicles, jolting to the situation instantly.
Meanwhile, as the family ran further and stopped nearby a fence, Judith scarcely spotted several CH-46 Sea Knights and Super Stallions flying from a distance. Her heart raced and sunken as the helicopters lifted several people off the neighborhood grounds, and sweat flowed from her head. Polly screamed once she placed her hands on her head while Mr. Cuddles shook the motherly peanut's hand. She looked down at the two below her, seeing the younger peanut going frantic and the tarantula shivering his body as if he didn't have a jacket. A heavy sigh came out of her mouth, positioning her hand on Polly's shoulder. Then, she gives the pet to her hands, and the latter puts her left on the spider's thorax. Mr. Cuddles' chirping dulled, halting the oscillation.
Suddenly, as she lifted her head upward, a group of soldiers in the humvee arrived at the scene alongside the cops taking the lead. Massive smiles occurred on the peanut's faces, and Mr. Cuddles chirped as he jumped up and down. Soon, the family sprinted from the fence and ran towards the crew. As they ran, the motherly peanut noticed that the soldiers bore biohazard gear and more advanced weaponry, alongside the cops wearing bandages.
"Oh, thank god!" Judith exclaimed after huffing and puffing and stopped running. "Officers, we're thrilled you're here! Okay, my daughter, pet, and I have recently escaped from the infestation, and the rest of the family is having trouble with the perverted savages. And it seems you must face much worse seeing the bandages."
"Don't you worry, Mrs. Fitzgerald! We'll tackle those abominations in a second, but we must aid more local civilians to escape. Since we obtained enough supplies with assistance, we must act fast before they get infected." Coffee Cop noted as she ejected from the vehicle.
"These soldiers will get you out of here, and we'll receive your family in the matter," Hamburger Cop continued as he exited from another humvee with Soda and the French Fry cops walking beside him.
"Indeed. Private, take the three to the sanctuary!" The hare ordered as he pointed at the humvee nearby the crew.
"Yes, sir!" One of the lizards saluted responsively once as he advanced to the steering will and opened the passenger doors.
"Thank you, thank you!" Judith expressed as she picked up Polly and Mr. Cuddles in her arms. With ease, the two Fitzgeralds headed inside the jeep. The horned lizard soldier fired up the vehicle and took the two elsewhere. With two citizens out of the way, the cops and soldiers band together to save the others.
Recuperating from the clash, Penny rose from the ground and attempted to stand still. Her vision gone blurry while earaches arose, and the fairy tried to readjust her eyesight and hearing. She lifted her head upward and saw Gumball and Patrick running towards her, reaching her arms at the two as she crawled. The fairy slowly lifted her limbs, with the strain of her body getting the better of her. Some of her bandages peeled off from her, and her wings shaken up and down. Blood and dirt fell from her branches, with bruises arising from her wingspan. The feline and fatherly peanut managed to reach her as she wiped the filth off her body.
As they infected proceed closer, Patrick reached for his kit, taking out a few remaining shotgun shells, reloading the weapon. A disgruntled sigh emerged from his mouth as he rolled his eyes, placing the cache back into his armor. Suddenly, the vacuumed flickered again, and sparks emerged from the gadget. Gumball's eyebrows skyrocketed to the sky, and his jaw dropped to the floor. He gulped once the gizmo's facing internal problems. Sounds of the circuitry exploded over the zone, popping more sparks and smoke as several specks fell to the foundation.
"Those mercenaries must've fried the device real good. Otherwise, it wouldn't act like that." Patrick stated once he pointed his finger at the contraption going ballistic.
"Yes, and because of them and Masami's prior thunderstorm, my system's almost fried!" The cat answered as he shoved his fist onto the vacuum twice after blowing the smoke off and wiping the filth on his shirt. A vicious meow burst out of his maw and worn it on this back.
"That's a issue, because the device's the best weapon against the infected since I'm low on ammo. If that gadget's out of commission and me bearing my last bullets, we cannot afford to lose the chance to escape," Patrick said as he reloaded the shotgun and taking out his multi-axe.
"I'm afraid if we don't go, we'll face a much worse situation. It's a pity I can't fly because of my medical condition." Penny replied, bouncing her wings up and down while the cat's pupils fell to the ground, twisting his head away from the sight of bullet holes.
Suddenly, a massive galvanic blast shot nearby the trio, causing themselves to evaded from the discharge. The aftershock scattered further, almost reaching for the cat, fairy, and peanut on the sidewalk. The triad looked upward instantly, seeing Darwin riding Vladus's back while the old-timer rushed further in the scene. A vicious scowl appeared on the goldfish's face, clenching to his wand once Mr. Lokowitchski zoomed to the floor. His eyes squinted, iris' and pupils turning sweet brown, eyebrows sharpening, and the previous silver exterior shifted into gold. He held his breath and lifted his baton in the air; while sparks materialized from the rod.
"D-D-Darwin?!" Penny stammered as she stepped backed, with massive pounding emerging within her chest and sweat dropping from her head.
"Just what we need. A infected goldfish riding a terrifying phantom we can't fight physically." Patrick sighed as he shaken his head and slapped his hand on his forehead.
"Holy crap, they're pissed!" Gumball muttered. He gulped as the monstrous form Vladus bestowed, and Darwin squinting his eyes again as the two roamed closer. His teeth chatter before his her stood and tried to fire.
"This is for Carrie!" The fish screamed once he plowed his arm forward while Vladus lifted his left arm. The foundation started to shake, and the remnants lain on the ground rose in the air. Nearby houses, stop signs, destroyed cars, and shattered pieces of the avenue rotated around the phantom, encircling the ghost and fish. The three lowered their jaws, pupils shrunken, and watched Mr. Lokowitchski lifting the rubble as if they're toy pieces. Soon, Darwin and Vladus together fired their projectiles at the group, and the debris surrounded the duo shrouded the electrical discharge intensively.
Gumball, Penny, and Patrick scampered from the region, and the combined incursions landed on the ground. The debris fell and scattered all over the street, with some signs plowed into the lane and cars skipping across the roadway like pebbles skipping on a pond. Several pieces of the remnants scattered over the traffic jam, indirectly hitting some cars and citizens in the aftermath. Fires erupted, hydrants shattered, and a dust cloud emerging as the situation languished. In seconds, the three glimpsed the massacre descended to the nearby inhabitants across the district. Gumball's ears plunked to the ground, Penny's skin switched from her yellow-orange to a full blue, and Patrick's heart raced, reaching for his phone from his kit, pressing buttons rapidly. A massive sensation awoken inside his stomach, imagining his wife, child, and pet inside the traffic, suffering the same fate.
Suddenly, more blasts and items jolted at them, and they each divided from one another to avoid the attacks. Darwin and Vladus advanced from the sky, charging against the trio again. Illumination brightened their eyes once they rushed closer, with the recovering infected beings not far behind and regenerating wounds.
As he lifted himself from the ground and wiped the filth off his clothes, Gumball lifted his baton and pressed the button.
No blast emerged except sparks. Gumball's heart sank as a black tint arose on the feline's face. Penny placed her hands on her mouth as she gasped, and Patrick positioned his hands on his head. Glimpsing this, Vladus and Darwin raised their eyebrows, overseeing Gumball shaking his baton rapidly as they pupils shifted to each other.
"You see that too? My brother's having trouble performing." The goldfish replied before his face switching back to this malicious countenance.
"Fascinating. Gumball's suffering the same situation as the doughnut sheriff. Perhaps we can used that to our advantage." The geriatric phantom smiled as he zoomed closer to the feline and sprouted his claws forward once their pupils switched to the cat.
Witnessing Vladus flying in, the shape-shifter formed into a medusa and grasped Gumball and her father with her tail just before Vladus reached for the feline. Penelope slitter away from the approaching group ahead, heading for the traffic jam upward. The ghost growled as he flew back to the group, and Darwin jumped off his back. The goldfish landed on the ground, and jolted after the trio. He thrust his arm onwards as electrical blasts advanced at the three.
The reptile avoided the attacks while the cat and the peanuts held onto its tail. Some of the blasts instead fell on nearby farms and fences, shattering them into pieces. Seeing the three rushing, Vladus stepped forward and shook his right hand, causing the path in front of her to crumble. The static TV-like hole expanded through the avenue. And suddenly, a mass of appendages appeared from the crater. The extensions are older, grey-skinned and jagged, with sharp claws and dagger cloth around their arms. A mountain of prismatic mist loomed over the road, and the crater bent further. The cracks advanced, taking a left turn behind the triad and surrounded the hands in a dome shape.
All limbs has the infamous slime attached to its skin and arms, some falling to the floor. All three returned, back to back. Patrick immediately opened fire on the militants. Gumball repeatedly pressed the buttons on the stick as sparks came, shooking the wand. He scratched the leaves, swinging his arms left and right. Darwin rushed over, raising his head towards Vlad, who slowly closed his hands, making his claws close. A menacing smile spread across his face.
The three noticed their claws getting closer after series of their attacks and lying on the ground. Everyone shivered, sweat dripping from their heads as they lifted it again. After hitting one hand and shaking the mucus out of the stick, Gumball saw the device flicker again, and suddenly lightning flashed from the rod, spreading it all over the arms. The intensity of the galvanic energy covered the entire roof, and some shock reached Vladus, blasting him immediately.
A massive scream erupted from his mouth as Darwin's pupils shrunken, running toward the nearby sidewalk and jumped into the fence, witnessing the floor getting scattered with the energy. Soon, the exuberance suddenly shut off, and the arms didn't move. Vladus fell to the floor, snarling as he get enveloped again. In seconds, the arms fallen backward, leaving a opening for the three fighters. They each collected a sigh of relief, and Penny transformed again, but this time as a wolf. She bended her knees as Gumball and Patrick sat on her back, and the wolf jumped out of the chamber, running away from the event.
The aquatic creature popped his head out of the fence, growling at he witnessed Mr. Lokowitchki on the ground. As the scurrying hound advances, the fish switch to the vacuum. A immersive tornado burst out of the nozzle, and the intensity of the gadget sucked the nearby rubble and the escapees forward to him. Within the tornado, Penny changed back to her dragon form and adjusted herself to blasting position, unleashing a fireball at the fish. The blast coated over Darwin as the latter screamed once the shot smashed on his face. The vacuum disappeared, and trio felled to the floor.
A savage growl escaped Vladus' throat as Darwin repeatedly slapped his body with his fins to clear the flames. He was out of breath, gritted his teeth after seeing the commotion of the fish, and shook his body. He closed his eyes and clenched his hands into balls. A dark rainbow light enveloped his body, and steam slowly emerged from his esophagus. Struggling as the lightning taken its toll, the spirit won't stop. A few seconds later, the light around the phantom became more intense, erupting like a volcano. The flash of light surrounding the elder disappeared, and when he turned his head, he saw the three people lying on the ground.
He plowed his left arm at the triad, grasping them psychologically. The cat, fairy, and peanut shaken their anatomies, grunting as they skyrocketed in the atmosphere. With the three captured and shaking their bodies, the phantom pointing his right index finger at himself, launching the triad at himself. A nasty snicker arose from the ghost's lips, and the infamous slime attached to him started to pile.
"I have to admit. Your defenses against us are admirable. Unfortunately, your resistance ends here." Vladus expressed as the grime attached to him extended further and crawled onto his arms and claws.
Meanwhile, Darwin kept running until he noticed a broken fire hydrant nearby, spouting water like a sprinkler. Fish threw his hands behind his back, removed the device and left it on the floor. He lunged forward and jumped into the geyser. Cold water splashed on the goldfish's face, spattered his body and shoes. The flame immediately stuck to the fish, leaving fried scales and spots.
Out of nowhere, a galvanic discharge materialized and headed straight for the older spirit. A feeling welled up in the phantom, and Vladus squirmed, trying to see where it was coming from, and electricity engulfed him instantly. The blast enveloped the ghost and pushed him into the street. The slime that went after the trio fell to the ground, similar to that of rain that scattered over the floor. The triad caught its breath and fell to the ground. At that moment, Penny transformed into a minotaur, grabbed the two and landed on the sidewalk. The aftermath of the landing left a crack hole surrounding the trio. Multitudes of screaming erupted from the phantom, and the wielder from further away thrown across the vicinity.
Darwin sighed as the water soothed his skin, until he listened Vladus's screams nearby. He jumped out of the geyser and looked up the sky, shaking off the liquid off himself and recovered the vacuum. He gasped once the elderly ghost was casted away, and looked downward at the trio. The fish scratched his head, seeing Gumball and the Fitzgeralds looking where the blast instituted. He ran toward the area, twisting his head to see a familiar figure running on the sidewalk.
As soon as the fairy loosened her grip, got up and turned around, she raised an eyebrow and swung her head back and forth.
"Where did that blast come from?" The shape-shifter asked the two as she scratched her head, witnessing her father and sweetheart taking a look around where the discharge originated.
"From her!" Gumball shouted as he pointed his finger at the individual running nearby the sidewalk upward. The Fitzgeralds pivoted to their left, seeing the pedestrian originating nearby the black vehicle. The trio watched Ms. Simian scurrying across the avenue, huffing and puffing towards the group with the baton in hand. As she ran, the primate raised her eyebrows and titled her head, seeing the cat nearby the Fitzgeralds with a sleeveless shirt, holes on his pants, and bandages on his skin. She also saw Penelope with much more damage than the cat, with bullet holes, plasters and bandages attached to her through some of the removed ones.
Her pupils dipped, and she turned her head to the car behind her, and a low hum escaped his mouth. The primate allows more passengers to be accommodated in the event of a retreat opportunity, as getting one is more than enough.
But before the ape could run any further, she turned her head again and saw Darwin standing in another area, growling, dropping his hands, shaking his flipper as he raised his galvanic energy baton. She figured the goldfish must have seen her drop an elder spirit from the sky. There is no doubt that the ghost has a connection to a previous victim. The primate noticed numerous ravages rushing down the street, and two fires broke out in the background. One was a prism aura, the other pitch black, and lightning shot through the area. Her heart raced as she caught a glimpse of Gumball, and the Fitzgeralds watched as things escalated to disastrous consequences.
"What are you doing standing there?! The infested are coming your way!" The ancient primate cried as the triad heard her roar as she ran toward them, resulting of three dashing away from the street. Unexpectedly, Darwin charged the four creatures and electrocuted them, causing both sides to stop and retreat. The discharge spread across the street, leaving the ground covered in electricity. Within seconds, Penny shoots the goldfish, but remembering what happened earlier, the fish escapes the ball and throws it onto a nearby house.
At that moment, the infected creatures rushed into the circle and ran towards the group. The triad wasted no time rushing upward in the avenue, and the primate took the lead. The four headed across the street, limbs up and down, toward the traffic jam without aiming further. Wind picks during the chase, flopping Gumball's ears, Ms. Simian's hair, and Penny's wings. The infected creatures followed the pursuers and discharged projectiles multiple times. Galvanic bolts, bullets, debris, pixels, and countless objects thrown at the escapees. The quartet immediately dodged the attacks and refused to be hit. Each civilian huffed and puffed as the dust billowed from beneath their feet. Numerous roars erupted from the resident as they ran.
"Ms. Simian! Where on Elmore is your car?! We need it!" Gumball asked as sweat dripped from his head, turning shortly red in the aftermath.
"Don't tret, Watterson! I managed to park it nearby the street up ahead! I've managed to hide it in the shadows, just in case those freaks try to find it when we escape!" The ancient primate responded as they continued running.
"FINALLY! We've been struggling to fight off these cretins with Penny to give the rest of the family a chance to flee! And get ourselves to a medical center since she can't fly yet!" Patrick screamed with the fairy using her wolf form to scurry across the sidewalk.
"And I'm having trouble with my gadget, and your bodyguards screwed up my device!" The feline continued as the vacuum started flickering, and sparks bursting out of his baton, falling to the floor. Ms. Simian twisted her head, seeing the gizmo becoming critical. Afterward, she rolled her eyes before the ape twisting her head again.
"Aw, great! Now I have to set up cautions in my car!" Ms. Simian sighed as she shook her head back and forth after gritting her teeth.
Unfortunately for the running quartet, the army split in two and surrounded the four civilians. Several students rushed in front of the group, blocking the pathway from the traffic jam ahead. The barricade left a massive short with the four as they dropped their jaws to the floor. Gumball and Patrick huddled together, fists clenched over their arsenals and clenched teeth. Then Penny transformed into a minotaur, grabbing more pieces of the road and putting them makeshift gauntlets. Ms. Simian cracked his fingers and cocked her pistol and shotgun, placing them back to her armor. She turned her head and clearly saw the bullet holes in the wings. The primate saw dry red patches around the holes, covered with bandages.
Lucy tilted her head and turned her skull back to the approaching savages, charging themselves against the group. The primate puffed and huffed and positioned itself while her club ignited energy. Soon, the infected creatures were pinching them with their claws but receiving blocks and punches.
Gumball pointed his wand left and right at the army, hitting each victim as if leading them to a ball game. Galvanic discharges, fog, and extinguishing foam erupted from his baton, albeit clipped at different angles.
Patrick blocked several attacks from the infected villagers by switching from a square end to a sharp one, and blasted several of the creature's civilians by swinging his right leg.
Penny landed many punches in the infected faces, planting their hands on the ground and creating waves that knocked many away, even grabbing a few before throwing them in the background.
Ms. Simian utilized her baton as the citizens, shoving them away from the group as several flown across the street.
Once Penelope punches another savage, Jamie suddenly covers her with uppercuts and roundhouse kicks. Darwin joined her and jabbed the fairy with his mace on her chest, unleashing powerful lightning on the fairy's skin. Anais and Daisy employed quick steps in different directions, allowing the fairy to take more damage by kicking her in the face. Masami storms in and uses his lightning bolt at point-blank range, electrocuting the fairy in seconds.
Before the goldfish could spit the virus out of his hand, Gumball rushed in and hit the fish's head with his baton, hitting him in the chin. Darwin took a few steps back and blocked the attack. The two porters faced each other, snarling and gnashing their teeth as they tossed clubs in swordplay fashion. Darwin waved his wand under the cat's legs, and the cat jumped up and jabbed the rod into the fish's head. The impact of the hit caused his eyes to spin, star appearing over his head, and fallen to the ground.
Unnoticed by the group, a group of cars crossed the road and sped towards the group with incredible speed, and another portal appeared in the distance, from which two creatures flew.
Alright, that's enough for today! This fight scene turned out longer than I expected. So the next part will do the rest!
